Hard to tell much from the video. Was he speeding? Video was 2x speed so couldn't tell. Seemed like he never saw him until he hit him. Or was he chasing the kid and ran him over? I drive incredibly cautious in my neighborhood bc kids fly around on e-bikes doing 30 mph and fly out of driveways to cross the street and never look. Terrible scene, hope the kid is ok.
Probably wrong thread for this, and granted it's a small sample size, but the judge in the Young Thug trial yesterday stood out bc she genuinely seemed to care about the defendants. She wasn't just a cold soul handing out punishments. Sad that that stands out these days but it did to me. To one of the guys that lost both parents young: "This is an opportunity for you to do that, and for you to put your past behind you, the bad parts of it, and continue and make your children proud of you. And set a good example for them, an example that I guess, unfortunately, you were not lucky enough to have throughout the entirety of your childhood with your parents," Whitaker said. "I'm sorry about that, but you can be the kind of parent that you ought to be to your children." To another: "I am sorry for the loss of your father," Whitaker said. "One would hope that to have anybody that they love taken from them in a violent way like murder might have an impact upon their lives that would lead them in the right direction, but it's not particularly surprising that sometimes that's not what happens, and it goes in a worse direction. Instead, I hope that with your age and with having really been faced with the distinct possibility of spending the entirety of the rest of your life in prison, the fact that you are getting this opportunity is not going to be wasted." She may be a terrible person, idk, but she seemed like a good judge yesterday.
That video is so bad. It's so bad that even if he did have a gun, there's still no reason to shoot him. We live in a society that allows guns but also employees law enforcement thats so afraid of them that they shoot people they think just have them.
Another example. Idk if the guy had a gun or not but he certainly wasn't pointing it at the cop. This is in Florida where you don't even need a concealed weapons permit anymore. Anyone can carry anywhere. But this guy thought he saw a gun so had to shoot this guy.
this is one where he was shooting his gun into the air to celebrate gun day get it together dblplay1212 and go to bed early today
Wasn’t sure based on the video with the guy falling down but I didn’t see any blood and figured dude would be screaming a lot more if hit.
This very much isn’t the point but also how the fuck do you miss from 5 feet. Like I’m glad the cop is the worlds worse shit but how?
They didn’t kill him, they tried. not sure why he wasn’t arrested hours before when police were called when he threatened someone with a knife. then a couple of hours later he had a tactical vest on and fired 50 rounds in the air. fuck around and find out why constitutional carry doesn’t mean the ability to fire into the air. easy solution, get rid of all guns or you know don’t fire in the air and then ignore cops who are just looking for a reason to shoot ACAB https://www.nbcmiami.com/news/local...celebrate-floridas-new-gun-law/3114629/?amp=1
this was my point. Him shooting in the air is not justification for attempting to kill him. Not killing him was a happy accident. FAFO shouldn’t apply to cops imo. They shouldn’t play judge and jury
my daughter's oldest friend's stepdad recently became a cop and he has changed so much. was the nicest guy ever ACAB
It’s a cult. If you don’t toe their cop line they’ll weed you out with the quickness. It’s extremely disturbing shit.
This will probably sound like victim blaming, but if someone is pointing a taser at me, I’d probably just show them the ticket instead of trying to prove (some?) point.
ACAB but fuck that guy too, honestly. If you're yelling a racial slurs at one of the cops and telling them how they're gonna have to pull their gun because you're not going to jail, what do you expect to happen there? They used tasers twice before escalating to a hand to hand fight. The fact that he thought he would be safe after doing these things is just white privilege. Again, cops do fucked up shit all the time and I'm not gonna spend any further effort defending them ITT, I just don't think this is a particularly persuasive example. I am unmoved by tiktok comments about what happened, just going on what I can actually see
https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-new...minal-probe-trooper-said-shot-duty-rcna179103 NY cops blames black guy in a charger for shooting him on Highway. Under further review there was no black guy or charger
This type activity being allowed to go on for that long is why people say acab. Countless cops could have stopped it.
Dude retired in 2010 and people were STILL going after him. Dude terrorized the community for 35 years while other cops just looked on. His partner became police chief! Here an article on it: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/roger-golubski-dies-kansas-detective-sexual-assault-black-women-trial/ Pulling some lines from there: Seifert said police misconduct was tolerated in the department. He described how informants and Golubski's ex-wife complained that Golubski was soliciting prostitutes. Golubski also was caught having sex with a woman in his office, he said. McIntyre was just 17 in 1994 when he was arrested and charged in connection with a double homicide, within hours of the crimes. He had an alibi; no physical evidence linked him to the killings; and an eyewitness believed the killer was an underling of a local drug dealer. Golubski and the dealer have since been charged in a separate federal case of running a violent sex trafficking operation. The eyewitness only testified that McIntyre was the killer after Golubski and a now disbarred attorney threatened to take her children away, she alleged in a lawsuit. McIntyre's mother said in a 2014 affidavit that she wonders whether her refusal to grant regular sexual favors to Golubski prompted him to retaliate against her son. Prosecutors say Golubski drove one of the women at the center of their criminal case to a cemetery and told her to find a spot to dig her own grave. He sexually assaulted her repeatedly, starting when she was just in middle school, leading her to suffer a miscarriage, court filings say. Williams was terrified at the time because her 14-year-old twins had just been arrested in a double homicide. They ultimately admitted to the crime so police would free their 13-year-old brother, Williams said in a separate lawsuit. Golubski began sexually assaulting her, alternating between threatening her and claiming he could help her sons, according to court records in the criminal case. The twins are now 40 and remain behind bars. The lawsuit she is part of questions their confessions. Williams said in her lawsuit that she once mentioned making a complaint. She claims Golubski told her: "Report me to who, the police? I am the police."
Not the same tone of what's normally in this thread - but absolutely moronic it's a miracle no one was killed. Multiple injuries including a 3 year old
